@Speedy! has a great source for rebuilds!

That actually sounds like the couplers have gotten loose. They're small polymer dowels around the pins that go between the snout and the rotor base. You might be able to give it a test by removing the SC belt and wriggling the pulley back and forth to see if you feel and or hear any play.

You can probably fix those up yourself. I'd ask Jesse at SDG Motorsports about it and see what he'd recommend.

Speedy is the expert on HC's and I do not disagree with him. I do agree with his implication that it is not a bearing. I have not heard a bad bearing make a cyclical sound. To my ignorant ears, it sounds like a resonance, something loose rattling at an even interval.

I'd take a stethoscope and isolate it.

As everyone else recommended, SDG or no one. Give them a call, see if you can send them the link to the video. If you decide on a rebuild, they're the only shop I'll recommend going forward. Shipping will be pricey, but worth it
